Everything went smoothly. I only wanted to mention one new thing that happened and one old thing.
The new thing: In section 6.17. GCC-4.8.2 when verifying that the new linker is being used with the correct search paths, the result had some extra lines for /lib32 which I haven't seen before and which are not in the book's example... bash-4.2# grep 'SEARCH.*/usr/lib' dummy.log |sed 's|; |\n|g' SEARCH_DIR("/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/lib32") SEARCH_DIR("/usr/local/lib32") SEARCH_DIR("/lib32") SEARCH_DIR("/usr/lib32") SEARCH_DIR("/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/lib") SEARCH_DIR("/usr/local/lib") SEARCH_DIR("/lib") SEARCH_DIR("/usr/lib"); And the old thing: Again this time I had that single unexpected test failure for GCC regarding asan_test.C which your test logs don't have. I reported that also for LFS v7.4, but I went on to build my usual BLFS system and used it since then with no problems. The asan_test.C failure is apparently a recent known issue even though the LFS build-logs still don't show it (http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55577)... === g++ Summary === # of expected passes 53365 # of unexpected failures 1 # of expected failures 290 # of unsupported tests 647 /sources/gcc-build/gcc/testsuite/g++/../../xg++ version 4.8.2 (GCC) Anyway, all this is just FYI. Thanks again for all your effort to make this terrific OS available to us, the 1% of the 1%.
